In the book, the relationship between affect and modeling is
discussed because, as educational psychologists have suggested for
decades, affect directly influences achievement. Moreover, given
the importance of mathematical modeling and the applications to
high level mathematics, it provides the field of mathematics
psychology with insight regarding affect, in relation to
mathematical modeling. By doing so it helps determine the degree to
which understanding of mathematics and understanding affect in
mathematical modeling episodes may have a direct effect on
cognition.

A volume in the series The Montana Mathematics Enthusiast:
Monograph Series in Mathematics Education. Series Editor: Bharath
Sriraman, The University of Montana The teaching and learning of
mathematics in Alberta - one of three Canadian provinces sharing a
border with Montana - has a long and storied history. An integral
part of the past 50 years (1962- 2012) of this history has been
delta-K: Journal of the Mathematics Council of the Alberta
Teachers' Association. This volume, which presents ten memorable
articles from each of the past five decades, that is, 50 articles
from the past 50 years of the journal, provides an opportunity to
share this rich history with a wide range of individuals interested
in the teaching and learning of mathematics and mathematics
education. Each decade begins with an introduction, providing a
historical context, and concludes with a commentary from a
prominent member of the Alberta mathematics education community. As
a result, this monograph provides a historical account as well as a
contemporary view of many of the trends and issues in the teaching
and learning of mathematics. This volume is meant to serve as a
resource for a variety of individuals, including teachers of
mathematics, mathematics teacher educators, mathematics education
researchers, historians, and undergraduate and graduate students.
Most importantly, this volume is a celebratory retrospective on the
work of the Mathematics Council of the Alberta Teachers'
Association.
The aim of this book is to explore measures of mathematics
knowledge, spanning K-16 grade levels. By focusing solely on
mathematics content, such as knowledge of mathematical practices,
knowledge of ratio and proportions, and knowledge of abstract
algebra, this volume offers detailed discussions of specific
instruments and tools meant for measuring student learning. Written
for assessment scholars and students both in mathematics education
and across educational contexts, this book presents innovative
research and perspectives on quantitative measures, including their
associated purpose statements and validity arguments.
Underpinned by the most effective teaching practices, and created
by a team of mastery experts led by Series Editor Tony Staneff,
Power Maths is designed to make the whole-class mastery teaching
approach work for you, your children and your school. The Power
Maths Teacher Guides provide expert support for your day-to-day
teaching, and offer opportunities for reflection and continual
professional development. Provides guidance on using the Textbooks
and Practice Books, explaining how they support a mastery approach.
Support with key strategies such as modelling a growth mindset,
assessing mastery, speedy same-day intervention, C-P-A approaches
and using key mathematical structures and representations. Focused
unit-level support for each mathematical concept within the Power
Maths progression, including important structures and
representations, key language, common misconceptions and
intervention strategies. Specific advice and commentary for each
pupil book page - including insight into why tasks and exercises
have been selected, and how to strengthen and deepen learning.
Templates for teacher reflection, lesson study, and tracking pupil
progress.
This book, the outcome of a conference organised in 2012 in Paris
as a homage to Michele Artigue, is based on the main component of
this event. However, it offers more than a mere reflection of the
conference in itself, as various well-known researchers from the
field have been invited to summarize the main topics where the
importance of Artigue's contribution is unquestionable. Her
multiple interest areas, as a researcher involved in a wider
community, give to this volume its unique flavour of diversity.
Michele Artigue (ICMI 2013 Felix Klein Award, CIAEM 2015 Luis
Santalo Award) is without doubt one of the most influential
researchers nowadays in the field of didactics of mathematics. This
influence rests both on the quality of her research and on her
constant contribution, since the early 1970s, to the development of
the teaching and learning of mathematics. Observing her exemplary
professional history, one can witness the emergence, the
development, and the main issues of didactics of mathematics as a
specific research field.

A Volume in The Montana Mathematics Enthusiast: Monograph Series in
Mathematics EducationSeries Editor Bharath Sriraman, The University
of MontanaInterdisciplinarity is increasingly viewed as a necessary
ingredient in the training of future oriented 21st century
disciplinesthat rely on both analytic and synthetic abilities
across disciplines. Nearly every curricular document or vision
statement ofschools and universities include a call for promoting
creativity in students. Yet the construct of creativity and
giftednessacross disciplines remains elusive in the sense that the
prototypical examples of such work come from eminent scientists,
artists and mathematicians, and little if any work has been
conducted with non-eminent individuals. This monograph is anattempt
to fill this gap by putting forth the view that interdisciplinarity
and creativity are related constructs, and that thecultivation of
domain general creativity is possible. Mathematics has historically
been anchored to numerous disciplineslike theology, natural
philosophy, culture and art, allowing for a flexibility of thought
that is difficult to cultivate in otherdisciplines. In this
monograph, the numerous chapters from Australia, U.S.A., Canada,
Cyprus, Denmark and Japanprovide a compelling illustration of the
intricate connection of mathematics with literature, paradoxes,
history, technologyand modeling, thus serving as a conduit for
interdisciplinarity, creativity and learning to occur.
